In this episode of Make It Happen, we're joined by Nancy Disbrow—HR leader turned neurodiversity coach and founder of Neuro-osity. We met at the Toledo Tech Loft, where Nancy gave a Loft Talk that had me nodding along... and then wandering off (you’ll get that reference).

We dive deep into:

  • What it really means to be neurodivergent (ADHD, dyslexia, autism, and beyond)

  • Why so many CEOs operate differently—and how that’s often a superpower

  • Helping kids understand their brains, advocate for themselves, and stop thinking they’re “broken”

  • How workplaces can better support different kinds of thinkers

  • Tools and strategies for productivity, communication, and managing focus

We cover everything from parenting neurodivergent kids to managing a team full of different thinkers—and yes, we talk Percy Jackson, speed limits, and why negative self-talk needs to go.

Whether you’re a leader, teacher, parent, or just trying to figure out your own brain—this episode brings clarity, humor, and hope.
